Thera Were fully i.rw del 1 1 i to attendance when tho con volition opened. Tho convention will lust three- days. Ono gonoriil object is tin- formation of a ttntu-dnpan organization for the further ance of the Irish omina. Tho.se who issued the call for tho convontion chirm that it l.s not contain nlafod that, physical fdree Shall be visitor advised in tho attainment of the independency of tho Irish people as a nation, unions such means bo divined ab solutely necessary, and tho obj.et in view be-probable of attainment. It is beliovert the convention will serve torovlvointerest and Infuse new life into tho Irish cause, both In America and Groat Britain. Among th"e many distinguished delegate is, O'Neill Ryan, of St. Louia. Mr. Ryan, who was one of the signers of the official call for the convontion, is ex-prosident of the Irish National league. Asked to Indi cate the purposes of the convention Mr. Ryan said: "It is a convontion called, by loading men of the Irish race, who have- ceased to have confidence in tho efforts o the British parliament to obtain for usonr rights.-"We wish to make known our desires and our domands through the instrumentality of this convention. Then wo shall await tho outcome. We wish to arouse the Irish movement from the lethargy In which it has been allowed to fall these post four or llvo yonrs. The general principle which we ndvocate, and for which I Ixdleve the convention will declare, is tho complete in dependence of tho Irish people. There has been considerable talk nbout tho conven tion's doclurlng in favor of tho employ ment of physical force in obtaining our onds. Now I do not beliovo nor do I think the prima movers in tho calling; of this convention belle vo that such, a courso I would be ndvlsnblo at tills timo. It would be foolishness for the Irish pooplo to cntor Into a rebellion which promised at tho outset to end In our pooplo being impris oned nnd killed. Hut I do bellevo that the men most uctlvo in this causo nro in favor of foroo should It bo necessary and likely to bring about the doslred result." Considerable comment Is being aroused by tho fact that among tho fifty delegates from Now York city who have arrived aro Jcro O'Douovan Itossa and J. P. Tynan. Tynau bocamo celebrated in 18X3 as tho "Number Ono," having In clurgo tho "re moval" of government oIIIci.Ss in Ireland, lie it was who was accused of having con ducted tho killing of Chief Secretary Cavendish and Under Secretary Burk in I'huenlx park, Dublin. So carefully was tho name of this man.kept from bis follow conspirators that oven Juntos Cnroy, a leading member of tho Iuvliioiblos, know him only as "Number Ono." Carey, how ever, whon he became an lnformor, made it necessary for Tynan to como to this country. During tho year following tho killing, Tynan was a member of tho Mid dlesex volunteers, a crack London corps, and was one of tho men picked to oscort tho queeu to tho opening of tho new royal courts on the strand, Itossa Is well known for hls-drnamito campaigns. Ho was, it Is claimed by frionds among tho dologates, most Inliu- manly treated while in an EtiBllsh nrisnn on u thirty yemV sontonoo for his connec tion with tho Fenian movement, being obliged to lap his food whllo his hands wore tied In-hind his back. Ho lately vis ited Knglnud, tho term of his sentence having expired. A sensation lias been created by tho an- nounoonient that among othor things the convention will consider the coses of tho Irish political prisoners still held in poual servitude in Kugluml. Lord Salisbury, it is stated on nlgli authority, will probably be sout a formal demand for their release within a certain period, which If not com piled with will be followed by the carrying out strictly of the old law, an eye for an eyu and a tooth for a tooth. For every prisoner not released the "removal" Is promised of a British cabinet officer or other prominent Kugllsh government of flcJal. I.lotitomnt Peary's Homo Coming. St John's, N. F., Sept. 31.
